cause the media to buckle. Also if multiple pieces of the media are used, allow enough
space between the pieces to allow for thermal expansion. Placing tape on the table prior
to laying down the media will prevent ink from being imaged onto the table. Finally, if
using overprinting on media that will expand when heat is applied, we recommend that
you group the desired image with a preceding image so the printer is a consistent
temperature when starting to print the desired image.

Media Holder Strips
Some media, such as Fome Cor, has a tendency to warp off the table when subjected to
heat. This warpage can result in a carriage collision. Media Holder Strips — which are
shipped with the printer — help to limit this possibility. Six strips may be required to
border the long edges of a sheet of 4'x8' Fome Cor.
The media holder strips are 1/8" (3.2mm) thick. When using media with the media
holder strips, 3/16" (4.8mm) thick material should be used.
Directions for use:
1.
Place the media on the table with a minimum offset of 2"(50mm).
2.
Turn on the vacuum.
3.
Mask off open vacuum zones with scrap pieces of media < the height of the media
printed on.

Note:
Thermal expansion may cause color-to-color alignment problems.
Important: Make sure you do not use any media less then this thickness.
